Race report and results - 29th May 2025 - Club Revoslots followed by F1
.
Not only did we have a great turnout tonight but three visitors from Switzerland who race Slot cars on a few different tracks back home, for what turned into the best night's racing we’ve had for ages.
.
Lot’s of talking took place tonight, Pippo, Michael & Marcel tried some of our cars and even one of the Rally stages, it’s fair to say they enjoyed all the cars they drove.

Our three visitors raced each other all night and it was nice to enjoy watching their private competition between themselves.  They were impressed with the Revoslots and the fact they were standard cars with no aftermarket parts on them.
.
The rest of us also enjoyed good racing, the cars seemed to have more grip than normal, maybe that was down to the track being warm.

F1

   
.
Four standard NSR F1’s and two Open Class F1’s were raced by our club members.
Andy & Kev with the quick Open Class cars and Brian, Chris, Ed & Gav racing Standard Class NSR’s.
.
As is usual, the NSR F1’s are very good race cars with Brian doing a great job of stopping the others catching his car.  Chris and Ed weren’t far apart at the end, Chris with a great run in Blue lane was the biggest difference between them.
Gav had a best run in Red lane and did his best to keep up with Ed.
.
Kev’s ‘Black Bull’ got a run out tonight, not often raced these days but Andy made him work hard for the win with his quick Falcon powered Ligier and the overall result wasn’t decided until Kev finished his last lap in the final heat of the night.
.
…meanwhile, our three visitors raced three different cars, a Club F1 (Allslot) and two borrowed cars, one also an Allslot and the other a Policar Ferrari.
They each raced all three cars with the overall lead between the three changing through the evening…’it was a challenge’ was the remark at the end.

   
.
A brilliant night’s racing at the end of which I was getting hoarse, losing my voice a little…
